Abstract

Although litigants and their lawyers may generally recognize that litigants will incur some intangible costs, they often do not consider the numerous intangible ways that litigants can be harmed and do not carefully assess these costs when making litigation decisions. Sometimes litigants’ intangible costs are much more important to them than the tangible costs. This post provides detailed descriptions of some of these costs, and includes questions that lawyers and mediators should ask clients to identify and value intangible costs.
